This is a great cottage just a short walk to a pretty little beach. Really nice host, which isn’t always the case and is very much appreciated. There’s a small yard that the kids enjoyed. Gorgeous sunset over the wetlands. Would love to be there in better weather!

The property was just as discribed, located across the street from the ocean. We loved our backyard view and we even saw a bunch of wildlife including deer. Plenty of room for our family of 5. The children had a blast and the place was very comfortable. The host is a great communicator and quick to respond. We would love to come back when the weather is warmer to enjoy the ocean and beach.

Amazing location for the cottage at Minot Beach. Quiet and peaceful and great views in different directions overlooking the beach or the marshes and even Boston skyline.Main room was great. Kitchen was a main congregating space. It accommodated our family of 5 well. Hosts communicated promptly when we had questions.Minor feedback: a few kitchen drawers were difficult to operate. In first floor bathroom, Shower curtain was stained and a few of the tiles had peeled. In the kitchen, there was no pot for soup or pasta (we only noticed this on the next to last day).

Cozy cottage with a very lovely view. It has everything you need for your stay. My husband and I stayed with 2 of our adult children for 8 days. It was absolutely perfect. The location is wonderful, and the city of Scituate is very quaint and larger than expected! I highly recommend and hopefully we'll be able to visit there again!
